Odds by point level — 2019 draw
Prior-draw probability for a first-choice resident applicant. 18 tags. Source: 2019 Nebraska Draw Results · p. 3.
| Points | Your chance | Applicants | Drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–10 | 12% the pool average — a floor for anyone holding points, since each point adds entries | — | — |
Unweighted tags ÷ applicants — state did not publish pools. Nebraska Game and Parks Commission publishes no per-level counts for this hunt; each point adds entries (points² + 1), so the pool average is a floor for anyone holding points and an overstatement for a first-year applicant. How we compute these.
What it costs (2024 resident fees)
Not applying this year? A point-only purchase costs $25 and adds a point for next year's draw.
Next application window: opens Jun 1, closes Jun 12, 2027 (expected) · results ~June 19. Last cycle's schedule rolled forward — confirm when the agency publishes.
Point creep & years to draw
Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

How to read these numbers
Every percentage on this page is a prior-draw probability: the chance an applicant with that many points would have drawn in the draw year shown, computed from the agency's published results. It is not a forecast — quotas, applicant numbers, and point creep change every year. Every figure links to the agency document it came from. Where a state does not publish a number, we show a dash, never a zero. Hunts with fewer than five tags show counts instead of percentages. Fees show the fee year used. Read the methodology for the engine details.
